Because I'm Worth It
Oh! Oh! Lookit what I got!
Oldman gives a tour de force performance as the passionate, volatile genius who inspired love and hatred in equal measure. Whether seducing regal followers or criticizing the ruling class, Beethoven made many enemies. But he also had one true love-the unamed "Immortal Beloved" mentioned in an enigmatic letter discovered upon his death. The thrilling search for the identity of this mystery woman leads us into Beethoven's dark past, his hidden passions and, ultimately, into the unparalleled genius of his music.
Gary Oldman...Sigh
Seduction and true love... Sigh
Beethoven... Sigh
Spoiler, you are just too good to me. And hey, are you spying on me? I was just about to purchase this DVD today as it is one of my all time favorite films and I have someone special in mind with whom I plan to share it.
You, my dear, have excellent timing. xoxo
